О достопримечательности

Краткие факты: Rising to 91 meters, the towering structure once served as a watchtower to guard against fires and enemy attacks. The iconic dragon weather vane perched at the top has guarded the city for over 600 years.

Основные моменты: Climb the narrow spiral staircase of 400 steps for a breathtaking panoramic view that stretches across Ghent's medieval rooftops and winding canals. Hear the carillon bells chime with melodies that have marked time for over five centuries, chiming soft notes that tell centuries-old stories.

Советы инсайдеров

  • Wear comfortable shoes since the stairs are steep and narrow.
  • Capture the best photos from the first balcony before reaching the top for less crowded views.
  • Avoid weekends when tour groups typically arrive in force.
  • Listen for the hourly bell chimes, a magical experience often missed by brief visitors.
